SPX<\/b>\u00a0futures are +12, giving some upside follow-through to last week's bounce. PPI and CPI are coming up. These are the scenarios I have in mind:<\/p>\n

Scenario A: If we get inline\/lower PPI and CPI, perhaps this bounce gets one more push towards the 5383 gap or even 5440ish (major spot).<\/p>\n

Scenario B: If the PPI\/CPI is a bit hot, we can test some levels from last week starting near 5250ish. Last week's low is 5119.Today I\u2019d trim and trail as we just had a nice tradable move from last week, so get much more selective now.<\/p>\n

Now let's dig into some individual names:<\/p>\n

META<\/b>\u00a0moved up the Mag7 Go-to list after the reaction to earnings. It\u2019s still in a huge channel, but when this market gets better, this could be at new all-time highs first. The $492 area needs to hold. The next two resistance pivots are $527 and then $542.<\/p>\n

AAPL<\/b>\u00a0was a great focus one week ago into the $196-$202 re-test area. It hit $216.78 Friday. I'd reduce. $220ish will probably be big resistance if it sees it. If you don't want to sell the name, maybe sell some calls to collect premium.<\/p>\n

NVDA<\/b>\u00a0was a focus last Monday and a great scoop into the $90.69 area. It's very tight. We'll see what it wants to do this week. It's up a bit this morning. $103ish is active support. In order to tack on more gains, it will need to get and stay above $106.60, then $108.80 is above.<\/p>\n

PLTR<\/b>\u00a0reported earnings last week. Some are long vs. $25.57. It\u2019s good to see a name like this holding gains in this environment. It hit an all-time high of $30.36. Manage your size.<\/p>\n

UNG<\/b>\u00a0was great from $15 to $20+ into June. It's up pre-market around $14.70ish. This can hit $17.50+ish September\/October. I bought some calls early last week.<\/p>\n

Your Trading Tip for This Week: Don\u2019t Overcomplicate Things<\/b><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t get caught up chasing every bright shiny object and every new flavor of the month.<\/p>\n

You don\u2019t need to know 100 strategies and 2,000 stocks.<\/p>\n

You can make a lot of money trading just a few strategies and a core group of 10-20 stocks that you know well.<\/p>\n

If you read my stuff, you know that my universe isn\u2019t that big.<\/p>\n

I focus on 20-30 tech and momentum names while rotating other groups of interest in and out. It\u2019s working for me, so why complicate things?<\/p>\n

Once you have your core strategies and stocks in place and you\u2019re making money, you can start looking to expand your coverage.<\/p>\n

But don\u2019t complicate things before then<\/p>\n

This Week's Calendar<\/b><\/p>\n

We have a busy week coming with the US CPI & PPI reports, plus some big retail earnings.<\/p>\n
